Duck Donuts debuts in Estero

Oven-ready in just 20 minutes, these whole-grain donuts are much lighter in calories and sugar than the typical sour cream cake donut. Topped with a touch of glaze and nutty pecans, these delightful bites are a truly satisfying breakfast treat.

The North Carolina-based chain, known for its completely customizable, made-to-order doughnuts, opened last week, taking over the former Supercuts space at Coconut Point in Estero.

This is the second Duck Donuts in the state and the first in Southwest Florida.

Franchise owners Wallace and Samantha Nelms weren't always doughnut fans, "but after tasting Duck Donuts and enjoying a hot cup of coffee with my wife and stepdaughter, I was amazed by the product and immediately began further investigating the brand,” Wallace Nelms said in a press release.

“Now here we are, ready and excited to offer the made-to-order Duck Donuts concept to the Estero community.”
